‘Of course we will miss him’ – After Chelsea transfer, player leaves a hole

 

David Luiz left Paris-Saint Germain on transfer deadline day to return to Chelsea in a €32m deal.

A couple of days ago, French newspaper  L’Equipe reported Luiz was allowed to leave the club after some insistent calls from the player’s agent, and fear of dressing room trouble.

However, that doesn’t seem to be the case, if you ask his former teammate Lucas Moura. Lucas has been speaking, in an interview with Perform Group (via Le 10 Sport), and was asked about Luiz’s departure.

Lucas insisted the atmosphere was different with Luiz around, and that he is going to miss him.

He said: “The atmosphere is different with David Luiz, with smiles, and the jokes he makes. A person like that, of course we will miss him.”

Luiz could play his first game since his return to Chelsea against Swansea City on Sunday at the Liberty Stadium. There’s much doubt about the transfer, and the defender will be pleased to get going on the pitch.
